Perks of Life feels like the unofficial gathering spot for Eagle senior citizens and honestly, I kind of love that about it. It has a very local, community feel that's getting harder to find. The coffee itself is fine -- not terrible, not "drive across town for it" amazing either. I usually just get the unlimited refill cup and drink from one of their mugs while I work for a bit. Where this place really shines is the baked goods and breakfast food. You can smell everything being made from their little kitchen, and it feels genuinely homemade in a way most coffee shops don't anymore. Their molasses cookies are somehow available year-round and I'm not exaggerating when I say if they're sold out, my day takes a turn. The quiche Lorraine is also legitimately excellent with a buttery crust, and they usually have a surprisingly good variety of gluten-free baked goods too. One thing I oddly appreciate: no music and no giant café chaos. Also no plugs, so this isn't the place to camp for 6 hours on a laptop. But if I need a quiet spot to answer emails or get 1-1.5 hours of work done without distraction, this is actually one of my favorite places to go. read more

Perks of Life was such a wonderful find during our Christmas break. We were visiting my mother-in-law, and this café was conveniently located near our hotel, so we decided to give it a try and I'm so glad we did. The customer service was amazing from the moment we walked in. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and made us feel right at home. On top of that, the coffee was excellent smooth, flavorful, and clearly made with care. This spot quickly became a favorite during our stay. I can't wait to visit my mother-in-law again just so I can come back here! read more

The Perks of Life - Lavender latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Eagle, Idaho

Today's coffee adventure brought me to Perks of Life Coffee. I was stuck at home for a bit waiting for the plumber to finish up. I had about 40 minutes to get there before 2. Thank goodness I was able to make it in 30 minutes before closing. The venue is very nice. You walk in and you instantly see all the pretty light fixtures and decor. On top of all that, you also see all the yummy looking baked goods on display. I'm sure the cases were full of goods this morning so by the time I got there it was slim pickings. Mind you, even the slim pickings looked delicious! I was greeted by the barista after she finished helping another guest. She was very nice. She grabbed my order, took my name and got my drink started. I got my usual drink, an iced americano with sugar free vanilla and room for cream. While my drink a being made, I made my way through all their merch. It was fun looking at all the mugs, variety of stickers, wall art and to what looked like wrapped book gift bundles with all sorts of goodies packaged in with it. The barista called out a name but I stood there kinda confused. The gal before me got her drink so I was the only one left who needed a drink. She looked at me giving me the hint it was mine. I repeated my name which was not the name she called out. I found it humorous that she couldn't read her own handwriting. I made sure again it was mine and made my way to the nicely stocked condiment bar. Topped my drink off with some half and half and made my way to a table. I like my coffee a hair sweeter so I add a little blue packet of sugar from my bag. It usually gives it just that little extra kick. Well, I didn't need it today. I wasn't expecting how sweet it was. I almost questioned whether or not it was sugar free syrup that was used. I also did ask for room so I can add some cream but unfortunately I had to dump out some coffee to make room. That little bit of extra water does dilute the espresso. It sucks having to dump product out that you paid for when it could have been properly made if the barista had paid attention. I did hang out for a bit and enjoyed my drink after it was modified. The venue is really chill. I appreciate all the fun merch, the creative wall art and baked goods. I can see myself coming back for a girls coffee meet up or for some alone time out on their outside seating area. Hopefully next time my drink will be on point and I'll be able to enjoy my drink that much more while trying out one of their baked treats. read more

Great Gluten Free quiche. The best GF one I have had out and about in a long time. Gluten free pastries are stored in a separate container. read more

Having just moved to the area, I have been looking for a specific kind of coffee shop and this is the place! When I see Cortado on the menu then I know they are a craft coffee shop. Plus the gluten free pastries along with their delicious looking breakfast menu, I have now found my go to coffee shop. The interior is very relaxing and a great place to have meet ups. They have a quiet room next door with a lot more sitting area. They sell cute gifts: coffee beans, stickers, books etc. read more

My husband and I have been to this place twice and liked it both times. Their coffee is good and not too sweet. We've tried mocha, Mexican mocha, toasted praline and coconut latte (winter flavor), and gingerbread latte (winter flavor). The first three were really good, but the gingerbread one didn't really taste like gingerbread. As for the food, we've gotten the breakfast sausage burrito and quiche lorraine. Both were solid. The crust on the quiche is delicious but the bottom is a little soggy while the edges are sometimes way too crispy. It might help to maybe parbake the crust first for a bit before baking it with the quiche filling. That's me being nitpicky though -- the flavors are spot on. For the scones, we've tried both the raspberry lemon and strawberries and cream. The scone texture is great -- a bit crispy on the outside but tender on the inside. The raspberry lemon is better than the strawberries and cream one though. The latter needed more strawberries -- it was just sweet and didn't have a lot of flavor. Overall, this is a solid coffee place with solid quick breakfast options. read more

I LOVE perks of life!! Especially a full array of gluten free goodies!! Great bottomless coffee too.

Great service and good! Only downside is the parking lot. I had to park on the street around the corner

Great drinks and friendly staff. Got coffee to go. It next time will stay because the inside is so inviting

I brought my kiddo here as a breakfast treat. He ordered the bacon breakfast burrito with green salsa and a hot chocolate. I ordered a vanilla latte. The coffee is so good that I may try one black next time. The staff were friendly and the place is really cute. It would be a great place to meet a friend or have an interview. read more

What a nice surprise! I recently visited The Perks of Life based on a recommendation. This is not your average coffee shop. The coffee is smooth, balanced and served at the perfect temperature. I tentatively tried their cardamom and cinnamon espresso drink. I absolutely loved it! I have to say it totally exceeded my expectations. The flavors were nuanced, not overpowering and not overly sweet. They offer cookies, pastries and a breakfast menu too. I visited at noon and the place was relatively busy. The coffee house is unassuming with a nice little patio. If you like great coffee this place is worth visiting!!! read more

I gave 4 stars only because the pastries we ordered weren't the most tasty. They were good but could have been better. But I will say their Mexican coffee was amazing!! I would go back for that! read more

Quality slipping here. Ambiance is nice but noisy. Lots of regulars discussing politics. I don't care for that. Food is not getting better. The quiche would be better if it were fresh and not nuked. Chewy. Parking is tough and coffee lacks robust flavor. read more

Super cute, modern coffee shop slangin' quality espresso and tasty homemade treats! I ordered a latte with an alternative milk and a personal quiche. The latte was delicious and well worth the price. The crustless quiche was tasty but overpriced for the portion ($7 for a small slice). I'd be happy to stop in again for a drink but I'll plan to skip the food. read more

What a cute little shop in Eagle! I love the store front filled with mish-mashed tables and chairs, fresh flowers and Idaho license plates. They have a cute patio filled with flowers and plenty of seating. We didn't dine in because we were on our way up to Cascade. The coffee was delicious. I got the Myanmar brew. It was floral and light. My hubs got the cold brew and enjoyed the smooth flavor. We both got some food. He got a sausage breakfast burrito and I got the boysenberry white chocolate scone. (Because pastries. Drool.) The burrito was delicious. Everything was warm and well cooked. Could have used a hot sauce option maybe. The flavor of my scone was fantastic, but the texture was wrong. It was much more drop biscuit than scone. But let's be honest. It was sugary gluten. I didn't mind much. Nothing blew my mind but it's a really great coffee shop. Definitely worth a stop on your way to Hidden Springs or McCall. read more

Immediately when we walked in we could smell their bakery items freshly made. They will not disappoint and taste just as good as they smell. As far as coffee goes, we ordered two of their specialty season latte's, which were both really good. Both came with adequate amounts of foam on top, which is good to see and enjoyed. read more

Nice little spot owned by a young local couple serving up good home baked goods (the pumpkin muffin is really yummy and the sign says they use local eggs in their baking when those eggs are available), sandwiches, salads, soup and coffee beverages (using Boise roaster Dawson Taylor coffee) on a "pay what you choose" system. The latter makes my Brooklyn born and raised hubby uncomfortable. But he'll get used to it because we plan on going here again. Friendly folks, funky and fun interior (The Band's tune The Weight was playing when we entered and it seemed spot on for the space https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFqb1I-hiHE ) and outside seating too on days when weather cooperates. We shared a pasta salad that had a little (very) tuna in it with perfectly al dente pasta on fresh greens, a pumpkin muffin and two cups of coffee for our $20 "pay what you choose" contribution. On our noon hour time frame visit we were the only folks inside except for friends and family of the owners. We hope they do a more brisk business on other days because we'd like this nice little place to be successful. A neighborhood vibe, good music, tasty eats and nice people. There may be four stars on the horizon. THIS N THAT: 1) LOCATION & PARKING: In one of Eagle area's many marginal strip malls, there is parking in the associated lot. 2) ACCESSIBILITY: Level in and throughout. Standard height seating available. Loo is accessible. 3) NEIGHBORS: CC Forte interior design studio is next door. read more

We stopped in right before closing and the employee was so nice. My husband wanted a mid-afternoon cup of coffee and ordered a latte. The coffee was so smooth and had a nice vanilla flavor to it, just what we ordered. It was a hot day and I wanted something iced. I wish I remember the employees name, he was great. He took one of the herbal tea flavors and blended me an iced tea. The tea was berry flavored and it was so refreshing. We decided to try one of the blueberry scones, it was one of the best I had. Truly a great place for coffee and food. Check it out, get away from the chains and find this little gem, you will be very happy read more

This place has the best gluten free baked goods! I ordered an apple+blackberry pie and a box of mixed muffins and scones for Christmas and everything was absolutely amazing. My family members who are not gluten free even raved about them. Thank you Perks of Life for making my life easier on Christmas! read more

This is such a cute little coffee shop! The employees are nice, the food and drinks are great and they have GLUTEN FREE muffins, cookies, and scones! All of the GF treats I have tried from here are amazing! The only downside of this establishment is that they don't really have any plug-ins available for you to charge your devices. Other than that, this place is a must try! read more

Coffee drinks (latte and decaf cappuccino) were excellent, as was the breakfast burrito and pumpkin chai muffin. Service was excellent and it was a cute venue. Would definitely go back! Oh...and the art work for sale was wonderful! I nearly bought one painting, but decided I'd think about it overnight, then we ended up going out for a big breakfast with friends and didn't make it back before leaving town. Check it out! read more

Love their breakfast goodies. Scones and muffins are home cooked and very good. Other food options don't disappoint. Coffees are also very good. Atmosphere is very friendly. Ambiance nothing special. This place has the right combo for us, very good treats, better than average coffees including latte's. The staff always does what you ask for. Caffeina has great coffee but so so pastries and scones at best. We chose Perks over nearby Starbucks by a long shot. No drive through. No bike racks which I think they could use. read more

I tried this coffee shop for the first time several weeks ago. I am addicted to the Caramella. This is the best coffee I have had in the Treasure Valley. It is so smooth and delicious! They also bake all their baked goods. The last couple of times I had the chocolate chip cookies which are fantastic. Today, I had a blueberry scone. Definitely worth stopping by. Next time I will take pictures! Each time it's been so good, I forgot to take a picture! read more

The burritos here are just what you need to get you going in the morning. Not crazy huge (or expensive), they are just the right mix of sausage (or bacon), egg, cheese, potatoes (of course)...great flavor, and don't forget the fresh salsa. Small local business from what I can tell, and they take pride in their food and coffee. read more

Great coffee and baked goods. The quiches are particularly amazing. Staff is helpful and friendly! We keep coming back.

Great little coffee shop with character. Like Eagle used to be. Menu has lots of Quiche, muffins, and scones with many gluten free options. I like that it's a local business and no corporate food. read more
